RE: [ jEdit-users ] Problems with searching

[Kent, C. - e. <ck...@es...>]

I don't think it's possible to do exactly what you want. there are a couple
of options. you could use "incremental search for word" (A+,). this brings
up the search bar with the current word (you don't have to select the whole
word). enter takes you to each match for the word and escape takes focus
back to the text area.

or you could use a macro and bind a keystroke to it. this should do what you
want:

if (textArea.getSelectedText() == null ||
textArea.getSelectedText().length() == 0) {
    textArea.goToPrevWord(false);
    textArea.selectWord();
}
SearchAndReplace.setSearchString(textArea.getSelectedText());
SearchAndReplace.setAutoWrapAround(false);
SearchAndReplace.setReverseSearch(false);
SearchAndReplace.setIgnoreCase(false);
SearchAndReplace.setRegexp(false);
SearchAndReplace.setSearchFileSet(new CurrentBufferSet());
SearchAndReplace.find(view);

this macro selects the text for you so you just need to press F3 (or
whatever you bind it to).

Subject: [ jEdit-users ] Problems with searching


Hi!
   I don't know, if the following is already done in jEdit,
but I didn't found it anywhere:
When I start searching a given text, I must to do the following:
- select text, press Ctrl+F, then Enter for searching.
Then F3, F3, ... for search next.
What I want to do:
- select text, then F3 for searching. Then F3, F3, ... for search next.
   I don't want to see the Searching dialog, I just want to jump to
   the next occurence of a string.
How can I do that?

An other thing what I have found has to do with HyperSearch:
When I start a searching, I can continue typing, and I can do some
other things too. But jEdit cannot refresh itself, that means, if I
switch to another application and then back, I cannot do anything,
because the whole window is gray. Is this a bug from jEdit or a bug
of the HyperSearch plugin?

And finally one more thing: HyperSearch is terrible slow. When I start
searching in a directory, HyperSearch needs 4-5 minutes to finish the
job. The same searching takes for TotalCommander less the 10 seconds.
I know, that jEdit is slower because of java, but I don't think, that
the difference should be so big. Or am I wrong?

Regards,
   joco
